WE LIVE AND LEARN.
A remarkable feature of the war (says the Went in/ nut rr) is the manner in which the Roman Catholic aristocracy, which up to a few years ago kept so much in the background, have come forward, The Duke of Norfolk has volunteered for service with his corps, Lorel Gerard is acting as one of Sir Redvers Buller's A.D.C.'s, whilst Lord Denbigh ami others are actively to the fore. And these are the sons and grandsons of the men whom the Duke of Wellington and most of the English aristocracy deemed so dreadfully dangerous that until an Irivh demagogue forced their hands they could not consentito admit them to a scat in the Legislature, anel when, ' nolens volens they had to do so. prophesied the results as only less terrible than civil war. Truly we live and learn.
